Celtic Array Limited (Celtic Array) is a joint venture between Centrica Renewable Energy Limited (CREL) and DONG Energy Power A/S (DONG Energy). Celtic Array is proposing to develop an offshore wind farm, called Rhiannon Wind Farm Limited (RWFL), in the Irish Sea together with associated offshore infrastructure to bring electricity to shore RWFL being Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project’ as a result of being an offshore electricity generation station of more than 100 Megawatts (MW) in capacity requires to submit planning applciations for a Development Consent Order (DCO), A Marine Licence for export cables and Planning permission, for onshore infrastructure. This Scoping Report is to support Celtic Array’s request for a Scoping Opinion from the Planning Inspectorate. It focuses on the offshore elements of RWFL and the approach to the onshore elements, it sets out the proposed content, key issues and methodologies for the EIA, the results of which will be included in the ES to be submitted with the application for a DCO.

Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Rhiannon Offshore Windfarm Ltd is an offshore electricity generation station of more than 100 Megawatts (MW) in capacity and is therefore defined as a ‘Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project’ (NSIP) by the Planning Act. It therefore needs to submit applications for a Development Consent Order (DCO) for the electricity generation station and export cables outside Welsh territorial seas to the Planning Inspectorate which will include an application for a deemed Marine Licence (in consultation with the Marine Management Organisation (MMO)); it also needs a Marine Licence for export cables which are inside the Welsh territorial seas to the Welsh Government (Marine Consents Unit) and planning permission, for onshore infrastructure associated with RWFL, in Wales, from the Isle of Anglesey County Council, The DCO application will be accompanied by one Environmental Statement (ES) prepared in accordance with the Infrastructure Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) (Amendment) Regulations 2012 (the EIA Regulations) and supporting documents. In submitting the information included in this Scoping Report, Celtic Array can be deemed to have notified the Planning Inspectorate under Regulation 6(1)(b) of the EIA Regulations that it proposes to provide an ES in respect of RWFL |
